sealoquesea asked:

I have been shopping with my boyfriend because he needs to purchase a suit. We are graduating from college soon and he will be interviewing etc. and is a business major. Here is the dilemma: He has very long arms, but a not-so-long torso, which makes the long suits (the size he needs for the arm to be long enough) look odd because they body section of the jacket is too long. He wears about a 40L, athletic fit. We are looking for plain black and have a definite budget. Looking for sales since we only have about 150 dollars. Does anyone know if there is a specific brand that tends to have a shorter torso section of the jacket OR if that is something a tailor could fix? How expensive would it be to have the main body part of the jacket shortened?

Jewel asked:

I’m trying to buy a suit for my husband. He usually needs 42 XL because of his long torso and long arms. I went to Target.com and they have sizes that include TL but it does not offer a description or measurement as to what TL is or even stands for.

I’m sure its stands for something like Tall/Long but does anyone know if it is close to an XL?

Would this TL size work better or just as well?

I know how and where to measure but target.com does not offer measurements concerning the TL size.

Is there a better place to order a Mens suit online that anyone knows of?

Please Help!
